I am calling the function below from an Excel spreadsheet and the conversion from hex to decimal using the VAL function in the "manufacturer" variable below is coming back with a negative value. The VBA edition is 6.5.
Public Function decMEID(ByVal sKey As String) As String
Dim manufacturer As String
Dim serial As String

I'm creating an emulator for a device to simulate wave forms. My challenge is that when I try to convert the output of the following code, I can't convert the Math.Sin's double output into byte values that lend themselves to the byte array format required by an existing graphing control as listed at bottom below. I''m not sure how to handle this when the sin function creates negative values but the byte values will need to be positive and basically 'shifted up' so that anything over 127 is negative. (0 - 255) unsigned. BitConverter.GetBytes has been suggested but THIS is the result of that attempt.

i have a negative number and i want to change it to its positive
eg -14 to 14
I need to check a value and make sure that it is not a negative number using a try catch statement I keep getting an error saying that I have to use a method.
Try
TotalCurrentBalance < 0
Catch ex As Exception
End Try
I wouldn't put a if statement would I? I am thinking that would defeat the purpose.
Is there a built-in function in .NET (VB) to convert a negative number into a positive, and vice-versa?I usually end up just using:NegNum = PosNu - (PosNum * 2)PosNum = NegNum- (NegNum * 2)
View 6 RepliesI'm having problem in my datagridview.I'm using vb 2008 and an access database. When I create a new record for my item the No column (primary key and autonumber in access) always shows a negative number.How can I make that a positive number and it should follow the numbering in the datagridview.

View 11 RepliesI asked a question earlier about comparing numbers using the "And" comparison operator in If Statements and now I have been toying around with getting my head wrapped around bitwise operators. So I have written a very basic code that will allow me to see the conversion of any decimal number in binary format.[code]Notice here that I am using SByte as the paramerter - which should only contain 8 bits right? However, the message box that appears has 16 bits assigned to negative numbers.
View 1 RepliesMy problem is with the following API.
Private Declare Function GetKeyState Lib "user32" (ByVal keyCode As Integer) As Integer In Windows XP, I could simply use the API like this: If GetKeyState(Keys.Left) < 0 Then 'Move Left If the key was pressed, it was a certain number below 0, the number itself alternated each time you pressed the key but it was always below 0.
My problem is that in Windows 7, when you press the Left key, the number isn't the same, in fact the number isn't even negative anymore. This problem tricked me at first into thinking the API didn't even work as when I ran the .exe of course my code did nothing since GetKeyState never returned a number below 0. I tested the value itself though and found that it never goes negative, the number for the key just decreases a little.
The weird thing is, while the .exe from the Debug folder proved my point that the GetKeyState number was different and thus the program didn't work, running the .exe from the Release folder actually worked, the controls were fine and the API returned numbers less than 0 for GetKeyState. But the .exe from the release folder was built with my old XP computer, as soon as I made a new build with my windows 7 computer the API stopped working again.
Why did Windows 7 change the number returned for when the key is down, is there a way to change it back without having to include some large package with my program? Why did the build from my XP computer work at first? Also it was only the one from the release folder, not the debug one, even though they were both from the XP computer.
I tested some more on windows 7 and found that every time I run the program, the number returned by GetKeyState is completely different. When the key is down the number is 1,000,000 units higher than up, but other than that the number is random each program start.

I got a Mysql sql database for my project. The id field is set as auto increment, which seems to function correctly. But on the form in my text field and datagrid i see a negative number, while in the database its a postitive number. I do not really plan to use the id field right now, but when i do it might cause some problems.
Anybody know why it would show as a negative number on the form(textbox/gridview) and as a positive in the actual database?

I have a problem using FJ Core to convert image into byte.
I have a code written in C# which works fine.
The problem is when im running it in VB i get the exception: Arithmetic operation resulted in an overflow
It works fine in C# to convert a negative number into byte For Ex. (byte)-90024 = 88
But when i try to do it in VB i get the exception.[code]...
I am totally new with VB.NET. I have started coding for Modbus protocol. The response that I receive from the slave is as below -
01 = byte slave id
03 = byte function code
04 = byte -no. of bytes sent by slave
00 = byte(8 bits) (Lower Register MSB)
00 = byte(8 bits) (Lower Register LSB)
64 = byte(8 bits) (Upper Register MSB)
00 = byte(8 bits) (Upper Register LSB)
2bytes for crc
Now I want the value of 64 00 00 00 into floating point number in Vb.net . I think in vb.net its single as its 32bit floating precision number. Now the bytes that I need are 00 64 00 00 but if i process in this way the output is different, so I tried manually putting the data into the byte array and found out that I need 64 00 00 00 to be processed so that i can get desired output.
I need to send a number as a byte (0-255).
SerialPort1.write(123)
sends 3 bytes representing the numbers 1 2 and 3. I need to send 1 byte containing 123.
I have two tables and the form contains a text box so I need to add rows of Table 1 to Table 2 and taking the value in the text box for each row is added to Table 2.
i have insert syntax but it is need to modification:
INSERT INTO table2(column3,column4)
SELECT column1 + @parameter
FROM table1
[Code]......
Why does C# define Byte+Byte=Int32 instead of Byte+Byte=Byte like VB?
View 1 RepliesI understand the concept of bytes and declaring variables to save on processing space. I understand that the max value that can be stored in a byte is 255. I cannot seem to wrap my head around my current issue. I don't have much experience working with byte manipulation.

NOTE: ProductID is Primary key and also set it to output parameter for example If material type is 500 and product ID generated 55 and random no generated 5434, then part no become 555-5434 how could I store partno in same table, I am somewhat trying like that
